Information Not Being Shown Inline - html

I'm trying to put divs side by side, but it's not working. One is inline, and the next one is down a little bit and a little bit to the right.
My code:
.FifteenInfo {
display: inline;
margin-top: 50px;
height: auto;
padding-right: 75px;
float: left;
}
.FourtyInfo {
display: inline;
margin-top: 50px;
height: auto;
padding-right: 75px;
}
.SixtyInfo {
display: inline;
margin-top: 50px;
height: auto;
padding-right: 75px;
}
.Package {
padding-left:70px;
margin-top: 15px;
}
.monthlyPrice {
padding-left:55px;
font-size:52px;
font-weight: bold;
color: #277FD8;
}
.differentbandwidth {
margin-left: 30px;
display: inline;
text-align: center;
padding: 15px;
border-style: solid;
border-color: #277FD8;
border-width: 3px;
border-radius: 8px;
}
.border {
border-left: thick solid #277FD8;
display: inline;
float: right;
}
.FifteenSpecs {
display: inline;
float: right;
}
<div class="FifteenInfo">
<h1 class="Package">Cable 15</h1>
<h3 class="monthlyPrice">\$39.99</h3>
<h3 class="differentbandwidth">\$69.99 Unlimited</h3>
<div class="FifteenSpecs border">
<h1>Cable 156666666666666666666666</h1>
<h3>\$39.99</h3>
<h3>\$69.99 Unlimited</h3>
</div>
</div>
Here's my image of the issue:
I'm completely lost, I've tried inline, and inline-block display times and they don't work.
So then I watched a couple of YouTube videos to brush up on display properties but it didn't work.

You mentioned in your comment that you wanted to make .FifteenSpecs.border display next to (inline with) .FifteenInfo.
The main problem then is simply that you have your .FifteenSpecs div inside your .FifteenInfo one, and hence it is displaying inside .FifteenInfo. Simply move it outside, like so:
body, html {
min-width: 1000px;
}
.FifteenInfo {
display: inline-block;
height: auto;
background-color: green;
vertical-align: top;
}
.monthlyPrice {
font-size:52px;
font-weight: bold;
color: #277FD8;
}
.differentbandwidth {
text-align: center;
border-style: solid;
border-color: #277FD8;
border-width: 3px;
border-radius: 8px;
}
.FifteenSpecs {
display: inline-block;
background-color: red;
vertical-align: top;
}
<div class="FifteenInfo">
<h1 class="Package">Cable 15</h1>
<h3 class="monthlyPrice">\$39.99</h3>
<h3 class="differentbandwidth">\$69.99 Unlimited</h3>
</div>
<div class="FifteenSpecs border">
<h1>Cable 156666666666666666666666</h1>
<h3>\$39.99</h3>
<h3>\$69.99 Unlimited</h3>
</div>
Some other things I changed in your code:
Changed inline to inline-block so that it retains the box model
Removed all the padding, margin: this really cluttered it up
Removed floats: inline-block will already make it "float" left.
Added vertical-align: top to make the top of the divs line up (as opposed to the bottom)

White Space Following float: left and clear: both

I am using float: left to stack two divs side by side. I am then using clear: block to clear the float, but a small white space appears between the floated divs and the next div.
I have added overflow: none to every element on the page because I saw that as the solution that worked for other people with a similar issue, but that didn't fix the issue.

</div>
EDIT: I know I can add a negative margin-top to the '#featured' box, but I would really like to understand why this problem exists.
Try changing the inline-block to inline-flex
#featured-header {
display: inline-flex;
width: 240px;
height: 30px;
}
Set font-size: 0; on the parent element. The space is a character space, so setting the font-size to zero makes the size of the space zero as well. But, you'll need to set the font size of the inline-block child elements back to your desired size.
#featured-container {
position: relative;
width: 100%;
text-align: center;
margin-top: 0px;
font-size:0px;
}
#featured-header {
display: inline-block;
width: 240px;
height: 30px;

Problems with layout using Floats, Clear, Display - Not Understanding when to use what - Improper coding

I am making a Image upload result box, somehow I managed to give it proper layout but elements of the result box doesn't seem right in 'Brackets View'
I struggle when it comes to use floats, clear and display. I get confused, I've tried to learn it 4-5 times till now but somewhere I fail to apply them properly.
Can someone guide me through this code while explaining when and where to use them..
Also, I use this technique to clear floats but sometimes it works and sometimes nothing happens:
.example
{
content: ' ';
display: block;
clear: both;
}
My HTML & CSS:
.files-bar {
width: 100%;
max-width: 700px;
margin: 20px auto;
padding: 15px;
overflow: auto;
border: 1px solid #BBBBBB;
box-shadow: 2px 3px 15px #E7E7E7;
}
.delete {
float: right;
background-color: #02BFC1;
color: #FFFFFF;
font-family: gothic;
width: 100%;
max-width: 75px;
border: 1px solid #02BFC1;
font-size: 10pt;
padding: 10px;
border-radius: 5px;
cursor: pointer;
}
.image-thumb {
float: left;
display: inline;
width: 160px;
height: 120px;
margin-right: 20px;
}
.img-thumb:after {
content: '';
display: block;
clear: both;
}
.image-name {
font-size: 17pt;
margin-top: 2px;
}
.image-size {
font-size: 13pt;
margin: 20px 0;
}
.file-status {
display: block;
font-size: 12pt;
margin-bottom: 10px;
}
.progress-wrap {
float: left;
width: 300px;
height: 20px;
color: #111;
height: 5px;
margin-top: 5px;
}
.progress-meter {
max-width: 300px;

background: #02BFC1;
}
.up {

Float is not a good strategy for layout as it requires managing floats with clear:both. clear will clear any floats defined previously, in this case your delete button that is floated right.
Please see this quick reference on float and clear properties.
As mentioned in a comment above, using display:flex will give you greater control over layout. Here is a solution with minimal change to your original code. I set display:flex on the container defined by div files-bar, created a container for progress and one for the delete button. Together with the img, these sibling elements are flex items. Here is a good tutorial on using flex.
And the complete code:
.files-bar
{
width: 100%;
max-width: 700px;
margin: 20px auto;
padding: 15px;
overflow: auto;
border: 1px solid #BBBBBB;
box-shadow: 2px 3px 15px #E7E7E7;
display:flex;
}
.delete
{
background-color: #02BFC1;
color: #FFFFFF;
font-family: gothic;
max-width: 75px;
border: 1px solid #02BFC1;
font-size: 10pt;
padding: 10px;
border-radius: 5px;
cursor: pointer;
display:inline-block;
}
.button-cell {
text-align:right;
flex-grow:1;
}
.image-thumb
{
display: inline;
width: 160px;
height: 120px;
margin-right: 20px;
}
.image-name
{
font-size: 17pt;
margin-top: 2px;
}
.image-size
{
font-size: 13pt;
margin: 20px 0;
}
.file-status
{
display: block;
font-size: 12pt;
margin-bottom: 10px;
}
.progress-wrap
{
float: left;
width: 300px;
height: 20px;
color: #111;
height: 5px;
margin-top: 5px;
}
.progress-meter
{
max-width: 300px;
height: 5px;
background: #02BFC1;
}
.up
{
margin-left: 30px;
}
.progress {
position:relative;
}
.cancel-upload
{
position:absolute;
right:4px;
bottom:2px;
}
<div class="files-bar">
<img class="image-thumb flex-item" src="profile_image/2861e205148ccebc01cb9b1d8a4c6b0c.jpg">
<div class="progress">

</div>
<div class="button-cell">
<button class="manage-btn delete flex-item">Delete</button>
</div>
</div>
UPDATE – New snippet using absolute position within a relative positioned container.
Please review the following solution. Instead of using float, I positioned the elements absolute within the files-bar container. This will work in any browser.
.files-bar
{
width: 100%;
max-width: 700px;
margin: 20px auto;
padding: 15px;
overflow: auto;
border: 1px solid #BBBBBB;
box-shadow: 2px 3px 15px #E7E7E7;
position:relative;
}
.delete
{
background-color: #02BFC1;
color: #FFFFFF;
font-family: gothic;
max-width: 75px;
border: 1px solid #02BFC1;
font-size: 10pt;
padding: 10px;
border-radius: 5px;
cursor: pointer;
position:absolute;
right:12px;
}
.image-thumb
{
display: inline;
width: 160px;

font-size: 13pt;
margin: 20px 0;
}

{
display: block;
font-size: 12pt;
margin-bottom: 10px;
}

}

{
width: 300px;
height: 20px;
color: #111;
height: 5px;

Layout Problem Solved!
The problem was that I wanted to put image on the left and other contents to the right of the image.
But there was too much use of floats, clear and display it was confusing also code was improper. And even though using them I was not getting the proper output. As the 'paragraph' element was also behind the image due to floats.
So, after some more trials I achieved that layout I wanted without using 'position' and too much of floats and clear.
What I Applied:
First, Floated the image to the left.
Put all of the other content below image inside a div class named 'rest'.
Floated 'rest div' to the left too.
Floated delete button to the right.
At last I've applied Clear Fix for "files-bar div."
It was simple that's it. All other elements adjusted itself. I just needed to put all other contents inside a div element and float it.
Updated HTML:
<div class="files-bar">
<button class="delete">Delete</button>
<img class="image-thumb" src="profile_image/1777859bb71d37aec3.jpg">
<div class="rest">

Why is this div not breaking to the next line?

I have a simple inner/outer div problem where it's probably easier to explain through pictures. Here is my issue:
The comment "This is a witty comment." is not breaking down underneath the other 2 labels. Here is my HTML:
<div class="commentOuter">
<div class="commentAuthor">someauthor</div>
<div class="commentDate">17 minutes ago</div>
<div class="commentText"><span>This is a witty comment.</span></div>
</div>
And here's the CSS:
.commentOuter
{
border-radius: 4px;
width: 100%;
height: 20px;
float: left;
background-color: black;
margin-top: 10px;
padding: 5px;
}
.commentAuthor
{
float: left;
font-size: smaller;
color: #68a5d9;
display: block;
height: 15px;
}
.commentDate
{
float: left;
font-size: smaller;
margin-left: 5px;
color: #AAA;
display: block;
height: 15px;
}
.commentText
{
display: block;
width: 100%;
}
I don't understand that when I highlight the element in the dev tools, the div is not showing to be underneath the labels, as seen in this pic:
Any help is much appreciated.
Because you floated the previous 2 elements. If you need to move it below. Use a clear:
.commentText
{
clear:both;
display: block;
width: 100%;
}
You also have to remove the specified height for the .outerComment element.
Just because it's not floated, doesn't mean it won't be next to other elements.

inline-block vertical centering issue

I have the following simple code snippet. It is taken out from my application where .a1 is a container button, which has an icon. The icon should be vertically middle aligned to the parents line-height/height, but it is shifted with 1px from top. Could you explain me why this is the behavior? Is there any solution?
.a1 {
display: inline-block;
width: 28px;
line-height: 28px;
background-color: #000;
text-align: center;
vertical-align: middle;
}
.i {
display: inline-block;
width: 16px;
height: 16px;
background-color: #f00;
vertical-align: middle;
}
<div class="a1"><i class="i"></i>
</div>
Why?
Because inline-block elements render with "white-space". You can see this in this demo where no height/width is set on the parent element.
When you use vertical-align:middle; the "white space" is rendered before the element (on top) (black line in the demo). This space moves the child element down and therefore it doesn't appear verticaly centered.
how to fix :
You can use display:block; and calculate the margin to apply to the child element so it centers verticaly and horzontaly.
You can also take a look at this question which talks about white space and ways to avoid them.
Well, it seems like font-size:0; for .a1 seems also a fix for such issue.
.a1 {
display: inline-block;
width: 28px;
line-height: 28px;
background-color: #000;
text-align: center;
vertical-align: middle;
font-size: 0;
}
.i {
display: inline-block;
width: 16px;
height: 16px;
background-color: #f00;
vertical-align: middle;
}
<div class="a1"><i class="i"></i>
</div>
.a1 {
display: inline-block;
background-color: #000;
}
.i {
display: block;
width: 16px;
height: 16px;
margin: 6px 6px;
background-color: #f00;
}
<div class="a1"><i class="i"></i>
</div>
.a1 {
display: inline-block;
background-color: #000;
}
.i {
display: block;
width: 16px;
height: 16px;
margin: 6px 6px;
background-color: #f00

Centering a text in div not working

Hi I'm trying to center the text in the first circle div. I think it's currently in the center of the div but when there is more than one characters like '200', it looks funky as below. I have the red circle background and trying to make the text in the center regardless of the characters. thank you in advance!
.main {
vertical-align: top;
margin-top: 3px;
margin-bottom: 5px;
display: inline-block;}
.main .label {
display: inline-block;}
.bg {
background: red;
padding: 10px;
font-weight: bold;
color: #fff;
display: inline-block;
border-radius: 60%;}
.bg .label {
vertical-align: top;
margin-top: 3px;
margin-bottom: 5px;
width: 10px;
display: inline-block;
margin: auto;}
<div class="main">
<div class="bg"><span class="label">200</span></div>
<span class="label">This is the other text need to be</span>
<div class="bg"><span class="label">0</span></div>
<span class="label">This is the other text need to be</span>
</div>
Try to set width:100% on .bg .label as follows:
.main {
vertical-align: top;
margin-top: 3px;
margin-bottom: 5px;
display: inline-block;}
.main .label {
display: inline-block;}
.bg {
background: red;
padding: 10px;
font-weight: bold;
color: #fff;
display: inline-block;
border-radius: 60%;}
.bg .label {
vertical-align: top;
margin-top: 3px;
margin-bottom: 5px;
width: 100%;
display: inline-block;
margin: auto;}
<div class="main">
<div class="bg"><span class="label">200</span></div>
<div class="bg"><span class="label">0</span></div>
</div>
EDIT: if you want to keep the same width for the circle and still center the text, you could replace width:10px; in .bg with the following:
.bg {
/* ... */
width: 35px;
padding: 10px 0;
text-align: center;
/* ... */
}
So the full snippet would look something like this:
.main {
vertical-align: top;
margin-top: 3px;
margin-bottom: 5px;
display: inline-block;}
.main .label {
display: inline-block;}
.bg {
background: red;
width: 35px;
padding: 10px 0;
text-align: center;
font-weight: bold;
color: #fff;
display: inline-block;
border-radius: 60%;}
.bg .label {
vertical-align: top;
margin-top: 3px;
margin-bottom: 5px;
width: 100%;
display: inline-block;
margin: auto;}
<div class="main">
<div class="bg"><span class="label">200</span></div>
<div class="bg"><span class="label">0</span></div>
</div>
Try something like this. I'm guessing you are ok with fixing the width and height of your little circles? If so, this solution should work for you. The benefit here is your circles stay consistent visually regardless of the values placed within them.
You can adjust the width/height of the circle to your liking, and whatever value you place in there will remain centered. Keep in mind, with this solution, your circles won't scale to match the value's length should it expand beyond their bounds. I assume this is the behavior you're looking for, though, given your original code.
Also, note, you might need to adjust the top margin to position the values according to the height of the circles if you change them. Hope this helps!
